gawd gn, i crack up every time i read your stuff!!

personly i have the same luck as gn, if i pick all but one horse that one horse would win lol i actually had that happen to me once. (not in a race though)
I was at a basset rescue picnic and they always have really great raffles and one of the raffle prizes was a trip to the set of Days of Our Lives (soap opera) well days is my favorite soap so i had to win that.
there were no tickets in the can yet so i bought $100 in tickets and put them all in that one can, i bent them and twisted them, anthing
i could do to make my tickets stand out lol (an old trick i learned) and i went home.
jeri (my friend that runs basset rescue) calls me up and says "your not going to believe this but only one other person put one single ticket in that can and she won" if it wasnt so funny i woulda cried.
fear not though i bribed the woman with dinner for 2 and 100 bucks and i got my gift. but was it worth it?? OH YEAH!!!
i have another story about a boat and a key but i'll save it for another time and not bore everyone to death lol.
anyway back to the point of the thread.
i only play long shots because then when i lose i was expecting it and if i win, i win lots weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
and of course the name is very important!!
